Given that there now are quite a few additional "reserved" entries, and
while we're still at SPL_HEADER_VERSION 1, I'd like to renew my request
of dedicating one of these fields to the script length - which would
enable us to set the U-Boot ${filesize} accordingly.
i.e.
--- arch-arm-include-asm-arch-sunxi-spl.h
+++ arch-arm-include-asm-arch-sunxi-spl.new.h
@@ -49,7 +49,8 @@
uint8_t spl_signature[4];
};
uint32_t fel_script_address;
- uint32_t reserved1[3];
+ uint32_t fel_script_length;
+ uint32_t reserved1[2];
uint32_t boot_media; /* written here by the boot ROM */
uint32_t reserved2[5]; /* padding, align to 64 bytes */
};
I do not intend to further push my specific use cases, however I still
consider the (then somewhat theoretical) ability to do "import -t
${fel_script_addr} ${filesize}" useful. For reference, the previous
discussion related to this was somewhere around
